АЗАРТНАЯ КРИВИЗНА ЗЕРКАЛ: РОМАН ЯКОБСОН В «ПОПУЛЯРНОЙ ИСТОРИОГРАФИИ» ЛИНГВИСТИКИ

Abstract

This article explores presentation peculiarities of R.O. Jakobson’s (1896-1982) biographical data on popular Internet sites that often serve as the main or most sought-after source of information on the history of Russian and foreign linguistics by young researchers in Russia. A narrative metacritical approach to the information presented on these platforms allows to visualize the extent to which prominent linguists’ images can be distorted, exemplified by one of the founders of the Moscow Linguistic Circle and the Prague School of Functional Linguistics. The main attention is paid in the article to the Prague period of R.O. Jakobson's activity.
